Chapter 65 Getting Rid of the Poison (2/2)

Upon seeing this, Wei Canglang said to Wei Qingqing, “Qingqing, arrange a place for prince Zhou Yuan to rest.”

Zhou Yuan interjected at this moment, “Great general, please allow us come along and have a look. It just so happens that I too study the art of Genesis Runes, and hope to observe master Ying’s techniques such that I may learn a thing or two.”

Wei Canglan hesitated for a while. It was not appropriate for him to reject since he had done a disservice to Zhou Yuan earlier and thus looked towards master Ying.

Master Ying merely swept an eye at Zhou Yuan as a smile of disdain formed on his mouth. “Since your highness is also proficient in the ways of Genesis Runes, feel free to follow and have a look. However, my skills are not so easily learnt.”

Evidently, he was under the impression that Zhou Yuan wanted to steal his techniques.

“Then let’s go.” Wei Canglan did not waste any more time upon seeing this and led the way out of the hall, heading towards the rear courtyard, while everyone else quickly followed.

A spacious and brightly lit room was located in the rear courtyard.

Wei Canglan practically flooded in with the rest. As Zhou Yuan’s eyes swept around the place, he saw a young nine year old boy on the bed. The boy’s face was sickly pale, and black dots could be seen all over body, dots that gave off a foul smell.

Currently, the boy was shyly peeking at the huge group that had entered.

When Wei Qingqing saw this, she hurriedly walked forward and soothed him in a soft voice, “Don’t be afraid little brother, they have come to help you get rid of the poison.”

There was no longer any trace of the valiance she had displayed in the barracks.

Wei Canglan tenderly gazed at the young boy as he walked forward and gently stroked the latter’s head. Subsequently, hope-filled eyes turned towards master Ying. “Please help him master.”

Master Ying strutted over as Wang Canglan hastily gave up his seat. After being seated, master Ying looked at the black spots on Wei Bin’s body and said, “The poison has already entered deep into the bone. This is very serious indeed. If delayed any longer, I’m afraid that he would not longer be able to keep his life.”

The moment these words were said, Wei Qingqing paled, while Wei Canglan’s expression changed.

“Master, you have to save my little brother!” Wei Qingqing begged with red eyes.

Qi Hao stepped forward, his hand landing on Wei Qingqing’s shoulder as he consoled in soft voice, “Don’t worry Qingqing, master Ying will definitely save him.”

Wei Qingqing promptly nodded, taking no notice of the hand that was now on her shoulder.

Master Ying smiled as he nodded and pridefully said, “General Wei and miss Wei can rest easy. Since I have come, I’m naturally confident in dealing with the poison.”

“Undress young master Wei.” Master Ying instructed with a wave of his hand.

A servant girl immediately stepped forward from the side and very carefully removed Wei Bin’s clothes, revealing the black dots and pale body underneath.

Master Ying retrieved a dark grey Genesis Brush from his waist, concentrating slightly as the brush descended. The brush tip flickered as it slowly painted cryptic stroke after stroke on Wei Bin’s body.

Everyone held their breaths, afraid to make even the slightest noise.

Wei Qingqing’s and Wei Canglan’s faces were filled with anxiety and hope, while Qi Hao wore a faint smile. There was a pleased look in his eyes as he looked towards Zhou Yuan and the rest from time to time, as if victory was already in his grasp.

Zhou Yuan was expressionless, while a restless Lu Tieshan tightly clenched his fists.

They knew that their situation in Canglan County would become extremely thorny if master Ying succeeded in curing Wei Bin. Moreover, the subsequent contest for the treasure of the ruins would become extremely disadvantageous.

After all, given their strength, it would be very difficult to put up a fight against those from Blackwater without Wei Canglan’s support.

The implications of this matter were really far too great.

While varying expressions decorated everyone’s faces, Yaoyao carried Tuntun in her arms, her beautiful face indifferent and her bright eyes faintly flickering as she observed the Genesis Rune being drawn by master Ying.
